Hope these come in handy for anyone doing a DIY project (or considering having them tattooed)

Been listening to AIC since 2004 and feeling really reflective lately about it, so I decided to find the highest quality versions of the art and render them in gold.

Keen for LP7 too, whenever it rolls around.

Also happy 60th to Jerry Cantrell!

So fuckin amped

For u/CosmicKeys’ eventual subreddit banner updating purposes 👍

At the time, Mastodon were touring Europe in the months leading up to the release of Blood Mountain on 12 September 2006.

I like to archive stuff so this is for my own file keeping but yeah, such a cool connection

Edit: some wondering how I made it, I had loads of samples already saved in folders so I just quickly rifled through, saw what stuck, colour corrected and spliced. Photoroom came in handy with the final stitch-together. Hope that clarifies

Edit 2d: the Kokiri are indeed gone as I wasn’t happy with how they were stitching to the asset I found with the cross-banner. In the next version I’ll try and add them back
